As the owner of a web development company that supports associations and nonprofit membership organizations, I’ve had the opportunity to help many clients tackle one of the most valuable—and often overlooked—digital upgrades: integrating their website, CRM, and email platform.
As the owner of a web development company that works exclusively with associations and nonprofit membership organizations, I’ve seen the same scenario play out more times than I can count:
A client invests in a brand-new CRM or launches a beautifully designed member portal—but the engagement numbers don’t improve. Emails bounce. Event promotions fall flat. Reports show inconsistent member counts. The problem? The underlying member data is a mess.
As the owner of a web development company that supports associations and nonprofit membership organizations, cybersecurity is no longer an optional concern—it's a top priority.
You might not think your organization is a likely target, but in reality, nonprofits and membership associations are especially vulnerable. Why? Because you store exactly the kind of data that attackers want: member names, email addresses, credit card details, donation records, and even health or demographic information in some cases.
As the owner of a web development company that supports associations and nonprofit membership organizations, one of the most common concerns I hear is:
“We want to communicate better with members, but we don’t have the time.”
The truth is, your staff shouldn’t have to manually send reminders, welcome messages, or content updates one by one. With the right tools in place, you can automate a huge portion of your communications—without losing the human touch.
As the owner of a web development company that supports associations and nonprofit membership organizations, I’m often brought into conversations right after a tech crisis: “Our current system can’t do what we need,” or “We’re stuck with a platform we’ve outgrown.”
These conversations almost always trace back to one thing: the wrong membership management software (MMS) was chosen—or the right one wasn’t implemented properly.
